Summary
Alice leaned back into the chair, arms crossed, expression mulishly guilty.
Now this felt familiar, too -- how many times had someone come to him, needing help to fix the world? Penny tried not to laugh, managed to keep it down to a vaguely mocking smile. But inside he felt like Alice’s voice: rough, jagged, a scream building momentum, eager to slip free. “And you need my help to handle it?” he asked. “Let me guess -- Coldwater’s at the heart of it somehow.”
Alice’s eyes gleamed behind her glasses. “He will be, so long as we don’t fuck everything up along the way.”
Screw being dead, that's so last season.
